Ok so I just got this Barber dime in a lot I won on ebay. It is a 1905-O dime and the obverse has a small dent in it. What is interesting is that the O mintmark looks totally strange.

I had an existing 1905-O that I scanned which is on the right and my new coin is on the left. Don't the mintmarks look a bit different on the left hand coin?

Here is the obverse of both.

Your new one is the Micro O variety, probably no premium in that condition.
